PTMS creates facsimile personal property returns across the United States.
PTMS supports state and local returns across a multitude of industries and jurisdictions. It also calculates asset values using the assessor’s calculation method, warns users of upcoming tax bills, and takes the pain out of forecasting and accruals.
Save time, minimize taxes, and manage all of your documents from one platform — no matter your industry, type of property, or how you’re assessed. Our customers save on average 78% of the time they’d otherwise spend on property tax compliance tasks by using PTMS.

How does this help my business?
PTMS has been a huge time-saver for us, from filing returns, the assessments, tax bills — really the whole process from beginning to end. We can prepare two or three hundred returns for a state in four to five hours, and get them out the door same-day if needed. If you did that by hand, you’d need several people on hand to be able to handle that volume!
